Dare to Zlatan

Zlatan Ibrahimovic, star forward on the team Paris Saint German, has been suspended for four games because of a verbal abuse incident involving a referee after a loss. He used many profane words and Ligue 1 decided it was unacceptable, no matter how talented the striker is. He will now have to sit for four games as his team is in an effort to win Ligue 1, currently in 2nd place.

This may be the stupidest thing someone in Zlatan's situation could have done. This is insanely poor timing with the fact that the season is coming to a close and that he has been on absolute fire recently, scoring 10 goals in his last 11 games. Zlatan often is upset with referees as many players are but show some self control for goodness sake. It was a selfish and shameful move but that being said the video of him berating this referee is humorous. It is clearly a profanity heavy rant even though most is not in  English and if anything positive, it shows that Ibrahimovic at least cares about winning.
